The guard play last year didn’t get the support from the 3-4-5 spots that this year will have and next. With Konate back and better, adding the stud Culver, older, stronger Routt, older, better Esa, Wes Harris, Lamont West.....the 3-4-5 spots are loaded like never before.
Dax is already replaced. He only averaged 12 pts and couldn’t shoot consistently. McCabe, Knapper, Beetle, Haley are very good and Harler is improved. Horton and Doomes are pretty good players to be possible redshirts and the 14-15 men on the roster. These guys practice against skill and great athletes. The roster is loaded.
I think you guys underestimate how good McCabe, Knapper are. McCabe is going to be a star freshmen. He’s that good. He will have many nights where he gets hot and lights up the scoreboard. He is one of the best shooters in the country. When he gets hot, look out. Kid is not a normal freshmen. Big 12 freshmen of year candidate. Don’t sleep on him.
